  • Rides History Rides History SCENIC RAILWAY
    Rides History Rides History SCENIC RAILWAY DESCRIPTION: The Scenic Railway is a wooden double out‐and‐back roller coaster. It was built at Dreamland in 1919/1920 and opened to the public in 1920. It is the oldest roller coaster in the UK and one of only eight scenic railways in the world. It is also the only roller coaster in the UK to receive listed status; being Grade II* - listed in 2002. A fire destroyed approximately 25% of the ride, including the station, lift hill and cars, in April 2008. Rides History HURRICANE JETS DESCRIPTION: The Hurricane Jets is a ride of the 1950’s, and one in which the riders can control the elevation of the cars by operation of a joystick. Supplied by the Lang Wheels Co. of Hillingdon, Middlesex, these were a popular ride at many parks, including Dreamland, although the one which has been acquired has spent its life touring with travelling fairs. Rides History 4‐ABREAST GALLOPING HORSES DESCRIPTION: Following the introduction of steam power onto the fairgrounds in the 1860s, it became possible to build much larger and more elaborate rides. Prior to this hanging dobby sets had been popular, but the natural progression was to a galloping horse. In 1885 Savages built their first Platform Gallopers for John Murphy from Tyneside. The same year Messrs Reynolds and King designed the overhead crank system which was improved upon the following year by Tidmans of Norwich. By the end of the century Crank – action Gallopers were being supplied by several British engineers, and as a ride has remained popular to this day.
